The Care of Time (1981) is the last novel by British spy fiction writer Eric Ambler. It deals with the theme of international terrorism, using alleged hither-to-unpublished memoirs of the Russian terrorist Sergey Nechayev as a plot device.

There is a TV movie adaptation also titled The Care of Time (1990), directed by John Davies, starring Michael Brandon as Robert Halliday and Christopher Lee as Karlis Zander.
